- A storm was rising, uprooting trees and churning up waves as high as mountains. In the midst of the storm, a water spout rose twenty or thirty feet high from the swamp, and at its mouth Yang Jian saw a queer creature: It had a mouth as big as a basin and teeth like swords. "Where's the man for me to eat?" the creature cried. It jumped onto the bank and attacked Yang Jian with a long fork. "Damned beast! How dare you be so rude!" Yang Jian laughed and replied with his lance. After a few rounds, he evoked the five thunders spell, putting the creature to flight. Yang Jian pursued him closely, but the monster dodged into a large cave at the foot of a hill. Yang Jian laughed. "Others may hesitate, but not I. No matter what might happen, I'm still going in." It was very dark in the cave, but Yang Jian's eyes shone with samadhi fire, lighting it up as bright as day.
